JJ,
What is your personal opinion about 16610LV X 16610 SS Black on a collector's point of view? Even knowing that their differences is in small details, 16610 is a classy and a MUST HAVE for every Rolex guy and at the same time even the LV not being a limited edition, but a comemorative edition with a limited production, it is going to become a limited one when Rolex stop producing it...(this is going to happen sooner or later, because there will be no sense to Rolex keep producing a model that comemorates the 50th anniversary for example 5 years after...don't you think? |

However, on a straight on basis, given the choice between the LV and the 16610 with NO CHANGES WHATSOEVER, then I'd pick the 16610. But my idea of the SUPER ULTIMATE Rolex would be the LV with a BLACK bezel and the same maxi dial. JJ ![]()

I just don't think they will do it the same way the LV was done simply changing bezel color, oherwise the LV would loose its comemorative value. ![]() |

The LV is only worth a few extra dollars over the price of the 16610....like say a couple of hundred extra bucks....that's all. To dole out anything more is being robbed....all you'd be paying for is an extra 20 bucks worth of white gold and bugger all else!! JJ

I would say that the maximum they would consider doing would be launching a new model or line with innovation. They would not take the risk, I think. ![]() |

They did well with the changes in their DJ and TOG range with the introduction of better cases and the ALL solid link Oyster and Jubilee bracelets.....good move. But, other than that, Rolex will sail on and sell on!!! And there's not a damn thing the competitors out there can do about it!! ![]()
